Mental rotation and object-spatial-verbal cognitive stiles

open access: yesRevista de Estudios e Investigación en Psicología y Educación, 2014
The aim of this study was to assess correlations between the Measure of the Ability to Rotate Mental Images (MARMI, Campos, 2012), an innovative mental imagery rotation test, and each of the three scales of the Object-Spatial Imagery and Verbal ...

Uncovering the cognitive processes underlying mental rotation: an eye-movement study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Mental rotation is an important paradigm for spatial ability. Mental-rotation tasks are assumed to involve five or three sequential cognitive-processing states, though this has not been demonstrated experimentally.

Development of mental rotation in 3- to 5-year-old children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We assessed 3- to 5-year-olds’ mental rotation abilities using a new puzzle paradigm. It allows for assessment of mental rotation abilities in children younger than 5 years, using a task comparable to ones used with older children and adults.

Why Successful Performance in Imagery Tasks Does not Require the Manipulation of Mental Imagery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nanay (2017) argues for unconscious mental imagery, inter alia based on the assumption that successful performance in imagery tasks requires the manipulation of mental imagery. I challenge this assumption with the help of results presented in Shepard and

Subthalamic Electrophysiological Mapping of Gait Initiation Dynamics and Freezing in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships among subthalamic nucleus (STN) activity, gait initiation (GI), and freezing of gait (FOG) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods We recorded GI and STN local field potentials (LFPs) via externalized cables in 38 patients with PD (35 reporting FOG in daily life ...

Is mental rotation controlled or automatic? [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 1986
A task requiring the mental rotation of letters was performed either alone or during the retention interval of two short-term memory tasks. The retention of eight digits or random configurations of eight dots slowed overall reaction time on the mental-rotation task, but did not significantly alter the estimated rate of mental rotation.

Comparing cranial biomechanics between Barbourofelis fricki and Smilodon fatalis: Is there a universal killing‐bite among saber‐toothed predators?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

Sex differences in large-scale brain network connectivity for mental rotation performance

open access: yesNeuroImage
Mental rotation has emerged as an important predictor for success in science, technology, engineering, and math fields. Previous studies have shown that males and females perform mental rotation tasks differently.

Spatial Skills First: The Importance of Mental Rotation for Arithmetic Skill Acquisition

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2019
Considering the importance of arithmetic in school curricula, it is crucial to understand the cognitive processes underlying its successful acquisition.
